SOMERSET, KY. – The University of Kentucky (UK) and Somerset Community College (SCC) signed a Memo- randum of Understand- ing with the University Center of Southern Ken- tucky on August 14. A new partnership provides SCC students with an opportunity to earn a bachelor’s degree from UK on the community college’s campus in Somerset. Students will first attend SCC to obtain their associate degree and then transfer to the partnering university to earn their 4-year degree. Specific programs offered through the University Center of Southern Kentucky and UK will be announced in the near future. “We are proud to partner with the University of Ken- tucky. Together, we are proactively ensuring an enhanced academic experience for current and future generations of students,” said Carey Castle, president, and CEO of SCC. The partnership makes earning a four- year degree more accessible. Under the agreement, students complete half of the degree at SCC’s much lower tuition rate and the other half of the bachelor’s degree from UK, allowing an affordable bachelor’s degree from a four-year university A library MOA was also signed so Univer- sity Center students will be able to utilize the Learning Commons on the SCC’s Somerset campus. Students also will have access to UK’s admissions, registra- tion, and academic ad- vising staff from SCC’s campus. “This action repre- sents another step toward a robust aca- demic collaboration and commitment to increasing access to postsecondary educa- tion in Southern and Eastern Kentucky,” UK Provost David W. Black- well said. For more informa- tion, visit the university center webpages at www.somerset.kctcs. edu.

A local man is sus- pected in several thefts being investigated by Kentucky State Police and the Pulaski County Sheriff’s Office. Charles Dale Girdler, 36, of Rollin Cliff Drive, was ini- tially arrested August 6 and charged with two counts of Theft By Unlawful Taking ($500 or more but under $10,000) in connection to the theft of a 2002 Honda Four- trax and Yamaha ATV reported stolen the day prior. According to the arrest citation filed by KSP Trooper Mat- thew Parmley, a brief investigation led to the discovery of the four-wheelers inside a storage unit on Ky. 790 behind the Southern Express gas station. When Trp. Parmley and PCSO Deputy Brandon Smith went to question Girdler, ac- cording to the citation, he ad- mitted to break- ing into the barn through the front door and stealing the four wheel- ers and hauling them to the storage unit that night. Surveillance video from the gas station was also recovered for the case. The man who was renting the unit claimed to know noth- ing about the thefts and voluntarily opened it up so that the officers could recover the ve- hicles to return to the owner. Additional charges and arrests may be pending once the case is presented to the Pulaski County Grand Jury. According to Trp. Parmley, Girdler is suspected in mul- tiple cases and so far officers have recov- ered four ATVs, a dirt bike, and U-Haul car hauler — totaling some $13,000. Girdler pleaded not guilty during his ar- raignment on August 7 and was released from the Pulaski County Detention Center Wednesday on a $5,000 unsecured bond.
